Square felt animals

These turned out SO cute!! I love them. I made these felt animals for out little class of Sunbeams in Primary to hold during sharing time. It gives them something to do and it's quiet. It wasn't hard at all to put these together. Just a little more time consuming than I was expecting. Each one took me about an hour to make. But it was totally worth it.

(pig, cat, cow, dog, rabbit, owl)

1. Cut squares out of felt. My squares are 3" x 3".

2. Cut out the eyes using black and white felt.

3. Cut out everything else the noses, beaks, ears, wings, legs, arms

4. Stitch on the eyes, noses, and beaks on one of the squares. Then stitch the smiles using black thread.

5. Put the 2 squares together and start stitching them together with a blanket stitch.

6. As you stitch, add in the arms, legs, wings, ears. 

7. Leave an opening and stuff the square with filling.

8. Close up the stitch and say "howdy!" to your new friend!!
